How many Mrs. Rights have I had to wrong
Every one that's come along
And how many finish lines
Have I had in sight and never crossed
Every one I ever saw
When it looks like I might win
I go and break my heart again

Things aren't good unless they're bad
And I ain't happy 'til I'm sad
When I see the good life closing in
I go and break my heart
Break my heart again

Why do I think I can
When I know I won't
I always end up alone
Why would a lonely man
Hold love in his hands and let it go
Well I don't know
All I know is in the end
I go and break my heart again

Things aren't good unless they're bad
And I ain't happy 'til I'm sad
When I see the good life closing in
I go and break my heart
Break my heart again

Things aren't good unless they're bad
And I ain't happy 'til I'm sad
When I see the good life closing in
I go and break my heart
Break my heart again

And I break my heart again
And I break my heart again
And I break my heart again
